"Why is the oil price going up again?" The slightly old man sighed and shook his head as he drank the soy milk.
A pair of bright, crystal clear eyes peeked out from behind the family newspaper and looked at the middle-aged man opposite her.
"Dad, then we have to hurry up and cheer for them.”Ling Ling blinked her eyes.
"No matter how fast we increase the price, we can't keep up with the speed of the oil price increase.”
The Ling family had opened a freight company. There were no less than 50 cars of all sizes. They traveled from south to north every day. Other costs aside, transportation costs were the biggest and most consumed part.
"Didn't you already sign a contract with the oil merchant? Why are you still affected by the fluctuation of oil prices?”Ling Ling, who studied finance and economics, was very quick-witted and often saved a lot of expenses for her family.
"Although we signed the contract, it doesn't mean that it won't increase. It's just that the increase is smaller than the market price." Even so, it still hurts.
"Dad, haven't you seen enough of those oil merchants 'expressions? I think we can change to another oil company. I heard that the Jiang Corporation's oil is of good quality and stable, and they won't raise prices recklessly.”Ling Ling, who graduated from university in July, was still looking for a job. Seeing her father frowning at the huge transportation expenses every few days, she collected some information for comparison.
"Of course, I also know that the Jiang Corporation's oil is better than other oil merchants, but the Jiang Corporation is very strict in their review of the partners. Moreover, they have to pay a large deposit.”It wasn't that Boss Ling didn't know, but he was only running a small business. Just the deposit alone would consume half a year of his net income.
"But Dad, you don't have to worry about the price of oil when dealing with the Jiang Corporation, and you don't have to socialize with those oil merchants who have tuna bellies.”What Ling Ling hated the most was that every time those oil merchants came to her house, they would look at her with ill intentions. She hated them.
"Sigh, let's talk about it later. I also hope to deal with the Jiang Corporation. That way, perhaps the deposit will be lower. If the Jiang Corporation was so easy to talk to, he wouldn't have to worry about it.
Everyone knew that although the Jiang Corporation controlled the output and input of fuel, there were naturally many people who were jealous of such a huge profit. However, the Jiang Corporation was famous for not participating in unnecessary social gatherings and accepting talks. When the company was first established, many employees and supervisors had tried to break the law. However, once they were found out, they could only be dismissed and go home to eat their own food. Therefore, all the employees of the Jiang Corporation followed the company's rules and regulations.
Ling Ling took the newspaper with a few red circles and planned to go upstairs to her room to make an appointment for an interview.
As soon as she opened the door, a beautiful figure stood in front of her dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror.
"Ling Qianqian, why did you come to my room again?”Ling Ling couldn't stand this sister who was one year older than her.
"It's not a big deal to let me look in the mirror. So what if you graduate from university? If you have a way, go find a job!”Ling Qianqian didn't even look at Ling Ling as she looked at herself in the mirror. Actually, the reason why she came to Ling Ling's room was mainly to see if she had bought any new clothes.
"Please leave. This is my private room.”Ling Ling would only show her true temper when she faced her sister.
"But I think it's very difficult. It's hard to find a job that pays 40,000 yuan a month.”Ling Qianqian mocked.
"I don't want to be an accountant." Ling Ling knew exactly what Ling Qianqian did to earn a high salary of 40,000 yuan by working as an accounting assistant after graduating from a high school.
Perhaps this was the high price she had paid for her makeup and clothes.
"How about being an accountant? He was a university graduate, but he had been unemployed for three months.”Ling Qianqian snorted as she spoke. She was most happy to have won against her younger sister, Ling Ling.
"I'm about to find a job." If she didn't want to find a job closer to home, she would have gone to Taiwan long ago. There were many supervisors who were fighting to hire her to work at the investment firm in Taibei.
"Humph! If you can, help me solve the problem of fuel costs. Isn't this what you're best at when you study finance? Or did you not study hard at all?”
"Of course, I will solve the oil problem for Dad.”Ling Ling began to grind her teeth, not wanting to give Ling Qianqian any face.
"Is that so? Could it be achieved just by drawing some useless tables on paper with a pen and making some boring predictions?”
"Ling Qianqian." Ling Ling clenched her fists and warned her not to insult her profession.
"Or are you trying to seduce the boss? With your malnourished body.”At least he had to be like her. Only then could he ensure that his life was good.
"Don't go too far." Ling Ling stepped forward and snatched the brush that she had picked up without her permission.
"What are you so arrogant for? Do you think I want to see your expression? You're the most useless one.”
"Be more polite." Ling Ling frowned. If they weren't at home, she would have declared war on Ling Qianqian. She had had enough.
"If you want me to be polite with you, you can only do so if you invite the CEO of the Jiang Corporation to our house.”Knowing that it was impossible, Ling Qianqian was deliberately provoking her. She knew that this younger sister of hers was someone who could not be provoked.
"Of course I'll invite President Jiang to our house. As for you, you spend all your time with an old man who's over fifty years old. It's rare that you're in the mood to draw your face like a monkey's butt.”Just because she didn't say anything didn't mean that she didn't know. Ling Ling wouldn't let Ling Qianqian insult her, not even verbally.
"You!" Ling Qianqian's delicate face changed.
"Nancy, why aren't you going to work?" A gentle female voice sounded in front of Ling Ling's room, interrupting the tense situation between the two beauties.
"Mom, of course I have to go to work. I definitely won't stay at home like a rice worm.”Before Ling Qianqian left, she even left behind a challenge.
Ling Ling almost broke the brush in her hand. Was this woman really her sister?
"Xiao Ling, do you want some juice? I'll pour it for you." After seeing her daughter come downstairs, the gentle female voice turned to Ling Ling.
"Auntie, there's no need. Thank you.”Ling Ling immediately suppressed her anger and put on a polite smile. She wouldn't vent her anger on others.
"I'm going to cook your favorite sesame oil kidney and pineapple prawn balls for lunch. Don't eat too many biscuits and snacks.”Mrs. Ling smiled gently at Ling Ling and turned around to go downstairs.
Hearing such caring words, Ling Ling's anger dissipated.
Who taught Ling Qianqian to be the daughter of an auntie who treated her so well? In order not to upset the auntie and for the harmony of the family, she would definitely endure it.
As for Ling Ling's mother, she had heart disease since she was young, but she still risked her life to give birth to her. However, her weak constitution still lasted for three years before she passed away. Before she died, she entrusted her father and her to Nancy's mother, who had always taken good care of her. Two years later, in order to give his aunt an explanation and for her, who still needed a mother's love, his father married her.
The family was originally quite harmonious. It was only when Ling Ling was ten years old that she found out that she had a sister in name-Ling Qianqian. It turned out that when the auntie was twenty years old, she had a short-lived marriage. However, due to their incompatible personalities, they divorced, and the daughter went under the name of her ex-husband. It was not until her ex-husband died in a drunken car crash that Ling Qianqian returned to the auntie's side after a few relatives refused to let her go.
In order to make up for the lack of maternal love for many years, the auntie naturally loved Nancy, and her father accepted her generously. What was commendable was that the auntie treated her, who was not his biological daughter, better than Nancy. This also caused Nancy's rebellious personality and the reason why she did not like him. However, for the sake of her auntie, she endured it. She could not let her auntie know that Nancy was a daughter who loved to compare, compete, and ridicule her. If that happened, her auntie would be very sad.
Ling Ling sat on the edge of the bed with the newspaper in her hand. Ling Qianqian's arrogant words rang in her ears again.
If you want me to be polite with you, you have to invite the CEO of the Jiang Corporation to our house.
There was nothing difficult in the world. She would definitely be able to solve her father's problem.
Ling Ling's unyielding personality had made her a determined person. She would always consider everything before doing anything. Only when she was provoked by Ling Qianqian would she lose her mind.
Jiang Corporation? Ling Ling sat at the table and turned on her computer. She started to search for everything related to President Jiang.
In order to help her father, she was willing to work at the Jiang Corporation.
After a morning of searching, Ling Ling stared at the computer screen as if the truth would change if she stared harder and longer.
Jiang Corporation's CEO profile-
His real name is Jiang Yanyan.
[Age: 29 years old.]
Education: Distinguished graduate of Cambridge and MIT.
[Phone: Unknown.]
[Location: Unknown.]
[Likes: Unknown.]
[Blood type: Unknown]
[Star Constellation: Unknown]
[Note: Jiang Yanyan is extremely concerned about his privacy. He rarely shows up in public except for his two-month vacation in the Middle East in October every year. He goes to work on time every day.]
The cuckoo clock on the wall rang twelve times on time before Ling Ling woke up from her daze. Was this a personal file? It was really complete. Other than his name, age, and educational background, everything else was unknown.
Sigh! Ling Ling sighed and felt weak all over.
She only knew that he was on vacation in the Middle East, but she couldn't possibly follow him to the Middle East and dig him out, right?
Eh? The professor once said that one had to do things in reverse sometimes in order to make a profit. A crisis was a turning point, and fate was created by people.
"What is it? Miss Ling, please repeat yourself."”The good friend of the Ting family, who was dragged by Ling Ling to participate in the desert tour, wondered if he had heard wrongly.
"Pui, pui, pui. What Ling Clan's Miss Ling? Ting Clan, how many times have I told you not to call me that?”Ling Lingqi reminded her friend. Even if her friend's family owned a Funeral Society, she didn't have to address him that way.
"Sorry, I forgot, but it's your fault. You actually said that you're here to look for the oil tycoon, Jiang Yanyan.”The Ting family stuck out their tongues. The news that her good friend had brought her was too shocking.
"That's right." Ling Ling nodded vigorously.
"In this godforsaken place?”The Ting Clan raised their head and looked around. Other than the women and men whose faces were covered in white robes, there was not a single blade of grass. They even lied to her that there was a wonder here?
"Perhaps you're standing on a rich reservoir right now.”Ling Ling, who had gone deep into the desert with great difficulty, refused to give up easily. Although the weather here was hot and dry, she felt like she was going to turn into a roast chicken just by standing still for half an hour.
However, in order to take a gamble, he had to hold on no matter what.
" Really?" The Ting family, who majored in the science of antiques preservation in university, stared at the sand under his feet suspiciously. He couldn't tell that there was a rich amount of oil hidden under the sand.
As far as she knew, this was a desert within a desert. It was difficult to find even a drop of water, let alone oil.
"It's not like you don't know that my family runs goods. If I can get to know the oil king, I might be able to get a discount.”
"Ling Ling, when did you become so naive? I remember that you're from the finance department, right? Even if he wanted to see the oil king, he could see it in Taiwan, where it was spring all year round. Why did he have to come all the way here?”The Ting family mocked her. "You can make an appointment at his company.”
"You don't know that Kang Yanyan is like a hidden mirror. He's elusive. Even if he's a guest, he has to go through a strict review. Moreover, they had arranged to meet at another guest house. Outsiders wouldn't even be able to see them. Therefore, it was impossible to meet him in Taiwan.”
"Is it true? It's so exaggerated.”The Ting family's mouth was wide open in shock. They didn't believe that such a thing could happen.
"I've hit the wall no less than ten times. Otherwise, why would I drag you here?”
"Hou, admit it. You're not here for sightseeing at all.”
"Don't hold it against me anymore. You know my sister. She looks down on me from the bottom of her heart. Of course, I have to prove it to her.”She didn't care if her father and auntie pampered Ling Qianqian, but most importantly, she couldn't let Ling Qianqian look down on her.
"Are you talking about that demon whose skin is thicker than an elephant? Please, that's why you swallowed your pride and let her have her way. If it were me, I would fight with her every day.”When the Ting family put on a show, she was not afraid of arguing with others and had never lost a fight.
"Yes, my family will be in chaos.”Why did he endure it? Wasn't it for the sake of a harmonious family?
"Sigh! You're really unlucky to have such a sister.”The Ting Clan couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for their good friend.
"Are you going to help or not? I've already made up my mind that I won't go back to Taiwan until I find Jiang Yanyan.”
"What?" The Ting Clan was dumbfounded.
"Kang Yeon comes here for a two-month vacation every year. I'll dig him out even if I have to.”Ling Ling had achieved her goal.
The Ting family looked at their hopeful friend and wondered if they should pour a bucket of cold water on her. Did the paparazzi not chase after a celebrity like Jiang Yanyan? It had been so long, but she still couldn't dig up any information. What clues could a weak woman like her find? It was obvious that she and Ling Qianqian had a huge grudge.
Two weeks had passed. Other than the wind in the desert, there were only stones under their feet. The two of them stayed in the restaurant. There was no news of Jiang Yanyan at all. They didn't even know if he came or not.
"Ling Ling, are you sure you want to stay?”The Ting family couldn't adapt to the desert's climate, which had a large change in temperature. In addition, they had run out of money, so they had to let down their good friend and return to Taiwan first.
"Yes, I plan to go deeper into the desert.”Ling Ling was still refreshed and didn't look sick like the Ting Family.
"Then be careful." The Ting family's entire body was sore. They no longer had the strength to persuade Ling Ling, so they had to hurry back to Taiwan.
"You too." Ling Ling waved at the Ting family in the car and watched as she was driven away by the hotel's car.
"Miss Ling, you still don't want to give up.”A small town police officer appeared behind Ling Ling and said.
For the past two weeks, Ling Ling had been bothering him to verify the information, but he still hadn't received any news.
"I plan to buy a camel." Ling Ling smiled politely at him.
"Why did you buy a camel?" The town police had a bad feeling.
"Of course, we have to search deeper!”
"Miss Ling…"
"You don't have to persuade me. I've made up my mind.”
"In the depths of the desert, there are many bandits who kill without batting an eye. There are also deadly scorpions and poisonous creatures.”
"It's not that I'm not afraid of death, but the people of China compete for ambition. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. Bring me to buy a camel!”#
